More Consecrated Missionary

Sorry this is so late we went hiking to a buddhist temple today and
it was SUPER SICK!!! but I forgot my camera cord todayㅠㅠ so lots of
pictures next week!!!

Gavin is huge, driving and eating heavy duty. Scary.

Well This week was a pretty good week.

To start off I went to our ZoneLeaders area on pday to do
exchanges. Elder Farr, our zone leader, also of Farrs Icecream, came
back to Wonju with me. We had a great time on our exchange we got a few
return appointments and we talked about alot of stuff. I have known
Elder farr since my first transfer so it is awesome to get to serve with
him for a couple of days. He gave me a talk about concecration and I
have set some goals to be a more consecrated missionary. Elder Roskelley
and I have worked harder than we ever have before and I am really
pushing it because transfers is in 3 weeks and im pretty sure i am
leaving wonju and I want to contribute as much as I possibly can to this
little branch I love so much! So yeah it was awesome.

The only down side to the Exchanges was that Elder Roskelley got to visit the beach in Elder Farrs area. Oh well....

A less active took Elder Roskelley and I and the Sisters to a Steak
House this week it was special because it had american sized cups. Super
good. This is the second steak house in a month. Boom.

Well General conference was amazing! the Olympic talk was one of my
favorites(maybe because I am away from sports) also Elder Uchtdorfs was
really good as well. The first session we had a kid come in and bother use the entire
time. He is just a punk of a kid Hes 8 years old, He was throwing stuff
around, trying to steal all of our treats and was turning off the
computer. and because we are missionaries we couldnt do anything he was
driving us insane. There during the next session we locked ourselves in
another room. he kept pounding on the door but atleast he was out. Man I
cant wait to have kids. So i didnt really concentrate on conference and
Pres Eyring spoke he is one of my favorites. I have to watch it again.

During the middle of sunday morning session a Russian lady came in
our church. Elder Roskelley, sister Kim and I met her. The only problem
was that she spoke no English or Korean, only russian. After a few
frustrating moments of trying to talk to her we got on google translate.
We were able to help her watch a session of general conference. We
figured out she was a member of 8 years and had been in Korea for 5 of
those years. She was super grateful to us and we were very happy to
help.

Next sunday the other Elders have a baptism and the lady i found
will be baptized the following week. Sad story, She picked Elder
Roskelley to baptize her. I gotta be honest I shed a tear over not being
able to baptize her, but a soul to God is a soul to God. I am just glad
she is being baptized.

Well I gotta go I am running out of time. I LOVE YA LOTS!!!!! HAVE A GOOD WEEK.
